They dont advertise it as an accuracy enhancer, but It seems to work well for me I got my Model 70 back today, the day after my OPS INC 3rd model suppressor arrived. Beautiful day outside so I closed up shop and headed to the range.  This rifle has always been disgustingly accurate, and the addition of the 3rd model definitely did not hurt anything; if anything it’s shooting tighter! Having been completely disassembled to contour the barrel for the suppressor I had to re-zero my scope. It only took a few shots to get where I wanted, and the reduction in recoil makes shooting a dream. After the initial zero, here are the first 6 shots. I think its 6, I loaded 3 rounds at a time. I kinda lost count because I kept telling my friend to take a look at the “hole” after each shot. The bad part was we were shooting into the sun, but the light shined through the holes making them easy to see. I was laughing out loud as the hole kept getting brighter and brighter..  I got the elevation fine tuned, so I moved to the windage, in 3 shot groups. Nice, 6 shots and 2 more holes. Even though this is designed to be shot suppressed all the time, I took the can off and shot 3 more rounds. POI shift is about 1 ¼” low at 100yds.  And for the final zero check my friend put up an orange dot to confirm with the last round. Its good.  |
This is a can for a rifle you intend to always shoot suppressed.  This mounts right to the barrel threads, no muzzle brake. Here's what the barrel looks like under the can. With bigger barrels, you can taper the collar into the barrel. With skinny barrels you'll have to add a collar like the 5.56 cans.   |
Everything I've shot, I sell, and no good comes from comparing  I'll just say it sounds good, and I'm very happy with it. Now I can keep my HVT on my AR10, and this on my Model 70. |
Oh wow, i was under the impression the 3rd model was significantly larger than the 12th. You learn something new every day. Thanks! |
